I think the new rules are being blamed by a lot of teams. Billingham should have thumped Bradford but only beat them 6-5. Blackburn should have pummelled Kingston, and Whitley "Northern Moneybags" Warriors, with the team they've got (here), should have thrashed Sheffield too, rather than a 5-5 draw.

Still that's good news for the Lions _________________Treat every post as if it's your last, because if they don't like what you say, it will be

It's not THE Rob Wilson though - the Whitley player is a little younger and the Newcastle Vipers coach is a dual national.

Trouble is that last season a lot of people's opinion of Whitley gained them a reputation as a bunch of thugs that would make the Bracknell Hornets nervous, and it's possible that under zero tolerance this is counting against them._________________Treat every post as if it's your last, because if they don't like what you say, it will be

You say that, but there isn't a new rule against skating up and down the offensive blueline while the puck is in the defensive zone. _________________Treat every post as if it's your last, because if they don't like what you say, it will be
